   BGP - Link State (BGP-LS) [<a href="./rfc7752" title=""North-Bound Distribution of Link-State and Traffic Engineering (TE) Information Using BGP"">RFC7752</a>] defines Network Layer
   Reachability Information (NLRI) and attributes in order to carry
   link-state information.  New BGP-LS Link Attribute TLVs are required
   in order to carry the Traffic Engineering Metric Extensions defined
   in [<a href="./rfc8570" title=""IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC8570</a>] and [<a href="./rfc7471" title=""OSPF Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC7471</a>].

   TLV formats are described in detail in the following subsections.
   TLV formats follow the rules defined in [<a href="./rfc7752" title=""North-Bound Distribution of Link-State and Traffic Engineering (TE) Information Using BGP"">RFC7752</a>].

   to [<a href="./rfc4272" title=""BGP Security Vulnerabilities Analysis"">RFC4272</a>] and [<a href="./rfc6952" title=""Analysis of BGP, LDP, PCEP, and MSDP Issues According to the Keying and Authentication for Routing Protocols (KARP) Design Guide"">RFC6952</a>] for analyses of security issues for BGP.
   Security considerations for acquiring and distributing BGP-LS
   information are discussed in [<a href="./rfc7752" title=""North-Bound Distribution of Link-State and Traffic Engineering (TE) Information Using BGP"">RFC7752</a>].

   The TLVs introduced in this document are used to propagate the
   Traffic Engineering Metric Extensions defined in [<a href="./rfc8570" title=""IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC8570</a>] and
   [<a href="./rfc7471" title=""OSPF Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC7471</a>].  These TLVs represent the state and resource availability
   of the IGP link.  It is assumed that the IGP instances originating
   these TLVs will support all the required security and authentication
   mechanisms (as described in [<a href="./rfc8570" title=""IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC8570</a>] and [<a href="./rfc7471" title=""OSPF Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions"">RFC7471</a>]) in order to
   prevent any security issues when propagating the TLVs into BGP-LS.

   The advertisement of the link attribute information defined in this
   document presents no additional risk beyond that associated with the
   existing link attribute information already supported in [<a href="./rfc7752" title=""North-Bound Distribution of Link-State and Traffic Engineering (TE) Information Using BGP"">RFC7752</a>].

   IANA has made assignments in the "BGP-LS Node Descriptor, Link
   Descriptor, Prefix Descriptor, and Attribute TLVs" registry for the
   new Link Attribute TLVs as listed below:

       1114              Unidirectional Link Delay
